In network science, collective dynamics of complex systems are typically modelled as (nonlinear, often including many-body) vertex-level update rules evolving over a graph interaction structure. In recent years, frameworks that explicitly…

Many social interactions are group-based, yet their role in social polarization remains largely unexplored. To bridge this gap here we introduce a higher-order framework that takes into account both group interactions and homophily. We find…

A wide variety of complex systems are characterized by interactions of different types involving varying numbers of units. Multiplex hypergraphs serve as a tool to describe such structures, capturing distinct types of higher-order…
